Design Contest? Can you help?

Now that we have the Heaven on EarthEnergy bundle in a bottle, we need a bottle label, about 2x4 inches. I am thinking of running a design contest for the design. But: I don't know how to run a contest. I don't have time for this.

So, as usual, I would resort to designing the label myself. What's wrong with that, you ask? Nothing, really, except the reason to do so. Although I am an architect and I was a magazine publisher for 11 years, the world is better of me doing the work of the planetary ascension, not designing labels.

The other reason is: getting the word out.

A contest often generates a lot of interest, people know others that know a designer, that know other people... etc.

If I weren't in the position I am now, I would want to try my hand on this design. Imagine the potential benefits a winner, or even a contestant can have from being associated with this work... will be probably set for life with orders, I say.

So, what do I need? I need people who know people who know people to find me a person to design and run this contest. Must be classy, must involve Facebook and other media. I may have the software needed.

The position is a semi-volunteer, benefit from the "traffic" type... Hopefully we can make money with it, even after the prizes for the winners. Every "product" we offer on the site have an affiliate program, 50-100% commission.

If you find the person, you will be rewarded, and not just with a thank-you... lol.

I am re-reading Malcolm Gladwell's bestseller, The Tipping Point, and we need connectors, mavens, and "salesmen" if we ever want to get the word out in a big way. Some of you, you know who you are, are definitely connectors... But where are the mavens and the salesmen?

Caveat: the person you find MUST participate in our programs to be considered. I would hate to hand this over to marketeers, wouldn't you?

I've run a few online competitions in my previous job working for a book publisher – but nothing really on the scale you're looking for, I don't think. I'm not a marketer or sales person, but I am a web designer so if you need any input on the design side of things, I'd be happy to help.

I'll put the word out to some colleagues – not sure they're the type that would be interested in participating in your programs, but you never know!
